TeeBlox is a well-known service that ships T-Shirts to you every month.
There are a lot of different choices of options now for TeeBlox, including packages with T-Shirt designs created by their community.
This review covers the original subscription, where you choose from a variety of geek interest themes. My choice here in Marvel. For that, you get a plastic envelope with a T-Shirt, a comic and usually another small item. All of the T-Shirts are official.
Different subscribers often get different combinations of items, even for the same theme, so there’s no information leaflet included.
I’m currently nearing the end of a one-year subscription, which I picked up during an offer. That’s made the price affordable to me in the UK. Otherwise, the monthly subscription is $25 USD (£20 GBP), which is relatively high.
But this is a good way to get started with a geek subscription and this one has the big advantage that the package slides straight into a standard UK letterbox.
Box Contents
Deadpool T-Shirt
This is an unusual design for TeeBlox. On the face of it, it looks rather like the cheap printed unofficial design found in some other boxes.
In practice, this is a much thicker T-Shirt than some of those. It does carry the Marvel logo inside. And, I’ve always like red T-Shirts, so this one works well for my taste.
I value this at the T-Shirt standard of $10 USD.
The Shadow Comic (#2 of 3)
This is from Dark Horse comics, released in 1995. It’s arrived in a slightly battered, but still clean and readable state.
Nothing wrong with it, although I still think that it would be nice to get a Marvel comic with the Marvel theme.
I value this at $2 USD (the cover price at the time was $2.95 USD).
Deadpool Air Freshener
A good tie in with the T-Shirt. I like these simple air fresheners, which you can hang in the car or around the home.
You get can this Deadpool Air Freshener on Amazon.com.
Based on the sales price, I’ll value this at $6 USD.

Box Review
A good T-Shirt is the highlight here.
I get $18 USD of value, which I think is a record for TeeBlox. Unfortunately, that’s below the cost price, but I don’t think that TeeBlox can ever hit that in the UK.
The air freshener really bumped up the value. Although simple, it’s the type of useful item I’m always happy to receive in geek boxes.
I wasn’t too excited by the comic, but overall this is the best TeeBlox I’ve had in months. Shipping to the UK is expensive, but if you live in the US this has to be an excellent value subscription.
TeeBlox has since stopped running, so the subscription link that originally sat here has been retired. You can still browse every TeeBlox review on this site.
